Chapter 809

In fact, John Rupert, who had just returned to his European nest from South Africa, was furious in his Swiss Richemont group headquarters and chairman's office.

“Shit！ You TM are shit. Jijia and Lange... These brands are about to be acquired by others. I just saw from the media that you all eat Shi? "

Looking at a group of Richemont Group executives in the office, John Rupert came out of anger. He had just left Europe for a few days. Unexpectedly, several watch brands he liked were thought of by other people's shahua group.

The other side of the century shahua group can not be underestimated. Everyone knows that behind it is a big financier like Li Feng, and Jijia, Lange and other watch brands are related to the development strategy of Lifeng group. It is difficult to win these brands if you want to compete with the other side shahua group. No wonder Rupert is angry.

In fact, this is also the reason why John Rupert immediately called Li Feng when he returned to Europe. Rupert is glad that he bought some shares of standard bank before. At present, he also has a card in his hand. Naturally, the card is the share of standard bank.

It's a long night's dream. Rupert's original idea was to forgive Li Feng for a few days, then contact, and then come to the door with the representative and CEO of standard bank, so as to hold the initiative of negotiation in his hand, but now he has to go ahead and completely disrupt his plan.

"Boss, what should we do next?"

“Shit…！ What else can I do? Don't you all see? I just talked to others on the phone. Now I can only negotiate with others to see if I can let them give up the acquisition plan so that we won't compete directly with them. "

All the executives of Richemont group shrink their necks when they see the current situation. There is no way. The next thing is not that these executives can participate in. Just wait for the news from their boss.

……

Li Feng returned to London that afternoon. There was no way. It was not far from Sweden to Britain. In addition, Li Feng's private plane was ready at any time and soon returned to London.

Similarly, after hanging up with Li Feng, John Rupert began to arrange, and then on the same day, he followed Li Feng and arrived in London in his private plane, but it was too late to contact Li Feng.

Back in London, he slept comfortably with the three beauties in his arms. The next morning, Li Feng, who was refreshed, was exercising with the three women in the gym, but William, the housekeeper, came over with Li Feng's private mobile phone.

"There's a call for you, sir. It's Mr. John Rupert. He said he had an appointment with you."

"Oh... Bring it. It's so early and urgent?" Li Feng paused a little, stopped the movement of his hand and said to himself in a surprised tone.

While wiping the sweat with a towel, he took the phone and spoke directly into the microphone: "Hello, Rupert, why did you call so early? Did you bring me any good news?"

"John, maybe it's good news. The CEO of standard bank is with me now. He came on behalf of the board of directors and shareholders of standard bank and made contact first. What's up? Are you interested in talking?"

There was a familiar and clear voice on the other end of the phone. It was the voice of John Rupert who had met before.

"Wow... Rupert, this should be good news for me. OK, I think I will be very interested in talking to Mr. CEO and expressing my wishes. I also look forward to the arrival of Mr. CEO and you Rupert."

"Ha ha... OK, John, I'll see you in the afternoon. How about I bring someone directly to your house?"

"Of course, that would be great. I'm waiting for you at home!"

"Bye...!"

……

After talking to John Rupert on the phone, Li Feng also ended his exercise in the gym. After washing, he ate breakfast and then read through a document about the standard bank. After all, it's always good to face the old fox and make some preparations in the afternoon.

For standard bank, Li Feng naturally has some understanding. After all, if he wants to acquire the other party, it is inevitable to collect necessary information. Standard bank merged with Standard Chartered and established Standard Chartered Bank.

Unfortunately, in 1987, due to political factors in South Africa, Standard Chartered withdrew from South Africa, sold its shares in standard bank and lost its controlling stake.

The holding company of standard bank is South African Standard Bank Group, which is a comprehensive banking group integrating banking, finance, securities and insurance. The target of Li Feng's acquisition is this group.

At present, the market value of the whole standard bank group is about US $4 billion. It is reasonable for Li Feng to ask people to offer us $4 billion. Of course, if you really want to buy it, you must raise the price a little. It is normal to buy at a premium.

Similarly, the shares of standard bank group are also very scattered. At the beginning, Standard Chartered acquired 39% of the shares of standard bank and achieved control. In fact, now the largest shareholder of standard bank group, South Africa public investment company, only accounts for about 15% of the shares. Public investment company is an investment company with state-owned background in South Africa.

All other shares are scattered among thousands of shareholders, large and small. The largest of these shareholders is only about 5%, and even many shareholders may have only one thousandth or one ten thousandth of their shares.

Today, the standard bank is still a bank dominated by South Africa, and even rarely participates in Africa except South Africa. The real expansion of the standard bank in Africa will be in the third world after 98 years and after the new century, which has finally achieved the reputation of the largest bank in Africa.

……

After lunch, just as Li Feng was waiting for John Rupert to come to the door, Wu Jianmin came together with Zhuang Sibei and Davis. This was notified by Li Feng before. Today's three talents are the three giants of new slag.

One is the chairman of the group, the other is the vice chairman director, and the other is the chief executive officer and director. Now the three are busy with the privatization of slag, which has been basically completed. Then they are integrating resources from all parties to establish century Standard Chartered Bank Holding Group, referred to as CSCB.

The basic framework has been improved. As long as the acquisition of standard bank is successful, four branches of the banking group will be established.

And integrating the American business of Standard Chartered Bank and the American business of Huamei bank into CSCB America, and preparing to be directly listed in New York in the future;

Integrate the original Greater China business of Standard Chartered with that of Huamei bank into a new Greater China business of CSCB, and prepare to be listed in Hong Kong in the future;

All businesses of the former Standard Chartered Bank, excluding those in Greater China, America and Africa, are still registered in London and listed in London under the name of CSCB;

Finally, we hope to integrate Standard Chartered's business in Africa with standard banking business into CSCB Africa and list it in Johannesburg.

Now the first three have been slowly integrated. The only one is Africa. Its core standard bank acquisition case is still in the initial contact stage. However, with John Rupert leading the way and the mainstream of standard bank's internal Zhancheng acquisition, Li Feng is full of confidence.

……

When standard bank is officially acquired successfully, it will be a surprise when the New Standard Chartered is launched.

Li Feng is still looking forward to the arrival of John Rupert and others today.
